Abstract: A foil structure for providing buoyancy and lift to a floating device is provided. The foil structure comprises an elongated left hand side floating device section and an elongated right hand side floating device section. The left hand side floating device section and the right hand side floating device section are placed at a predetermined distance to a longitudinal axis of the floating device and oriented substantially parallel thereto. A left hand side foil and a right hand side foil protrudes from the left hand side floating device section and the right hand side floating device section, respectively, towards a vertical plane through the longitudinal axis and is oriented at an acute angle to a horizontal plane. A leading edge of each foil intersects the respective floating device section in proximity to a bow portion thereof. Each foil extends along the respective floating device section and terminates in proximity to a stern portion thereof. Each foil has a top surface with a front portion thereof being angled downward towards the leading edge. The angled front portion is determined such that wave penetration is assisted and instabilities due to buoyancy change are substantially dampened.

Abstract: A fall detector unit 110 is worn by a patient and performs a wakeup when an acceleration signal exceeds a predetermined threshold. A barometer 118 provides a series of pressure readings over a pressure examination period to provide a first pressure difference value. The pressure signals are further monitored over a compensation period after the examination period to obtain a second pressure difference value representing background environmental changes. The first pressure difference value is compensated by the second pressure difference value to obtain a total pressure difference value and thus derive a total height difference value. The fall detector unit 110 determines a fall event using the total height difference value.

Abstract: A cam shaft is disclosed having an asymmetric chamfer for guiding a ball bearing deeper into a cam shaft groove to avoid ball loss when an immediate deceleration force is applied. The chamfer spaces the ball from an opening in the front face of a hammer that moves axially relative to the cam shaft when a tool having the cam shaft and hammer is dropped. The ball is therefore less likely to escape through the front opening of the hammer when the impact wrench is dropped.

Title: Method for the dry quenching of coke by means of carbon dioxide with subsequent use of the carbon monoxide produced
Inventor: THIELERT HOLGER
IPC: C10B39/02
Filed: 2012-09-21
Abstract: The invention relates to a process for dry cooling of coke with carbon dioxide with subsequent use of the carbon monoxide produced, in which the coal is cyclically converted to coke and the coke, after the coking oven has been unloaded, is introduced into a cooling apparatus, and carbon dioxide is introduced in the cooling apparatus for dry cooling, such that a Boudouard reaction gives rise to carbon monoxide, and the carbon monoxide produced is used to heat the coking oven. The process allows utilization of the heat which arises in the course of coking for production of carbon monoxide, which in turn is used in the heating, such that a very balanced heat budget of the overall process can be achieved overall.
